LSU's D = small and slow

20 pounds is about the normal difference between O-lines and D-lines. But if it helps you sleep at night, It's all good to me!

 

I've updated the OL weights.

3 starters from the OL with Oregon?

OC J. Holmes 1st. team pac-10
RG Kaiser 4th. team
OT B. Thran 2nd. team
Backups
OC Forer
LT Carmichael

Is this right?

 

Let's try this again

 

Weems- 6-5 302 [FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Appeared in 11 games, starting 7[/FONT]
York- 6-5 292 [FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Appeared in all 13 games, starting 10[/FONT]
Asper 6-7 325 [FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Appeared in 13 games, starting 11

Back ups are:

LT- Everett Benyard, 6-7, 325
LG- Mana Greig, 5-11, 291
RG- Nick Cody, 6-5, 296
RT- Ryan Clanton, 6-4, 294

The back up for the Center is either Grasu or Stevens.

 

So where are the big Pacific Islander linemen Oregon is famous for? They must be on Defense.

 

So with LSU:

Josh Williford played in 13 and started 4
Greg Shaw 9/1
Will Blackwell 4/2 (Out for most of season, injured on first play in first game)
Matt Branch played in 11 games
Josh Dworaczyk 13/13
Chris Faulk 11/2
T-Bob Hebert 13/7
Alex Hurst 10/10
P.J. Lonergan 13/13

LSU returns 8 guys that started a least one game.

 

Which is selling it short, since Blackwell is the most experienced and best of the bunch. It's no coincidence LSU ran all over the Aggies when Blackwell was back at full strength. He played an awesome game.

 

Mostly Defense, but we've had a few O-linemen in the past. Our two starting DT's are both Pacific Islanders by descent. One from Hawaii, one from Utah.

 

Oh, it's a given that LSU has more starting experience. Our guys will have to grow up fast!

 

Drake Nevis, you know, one of the top DT's in the SEC last year was 285...

Nikc Fairley, you know, the lone guy who beat Oregon, was 291...



Just sayin.....
